I was going to write up something specific to what we've done, but I

PyPI WSGI frontend

I implemented PyPI as a WSGI application.  It's fairly trivial, and 
doesn't effect anything except pypi.cgi (actually doesn't effect that 
file, but is an alternative to that code).  The WSGI version is here:

   http://lonelylion.com/chipy/pypi/pypi_wsgi.py

And the CGI version I based it on (only slightly different from CVS):

   http://lonelylion.com/chipy/pypi/pypi_cgi.py

I'm not 100% sure if PyPI is threadsafe, or serves multiple requests 
from a single process properly, but I haven't seen anything that would 
make me expect a problem.  So this should be sufficient to get it to run 
under mod_python or Twisted or whatever.

Now I need to read up on WSGI :)

Knowing nothing about it, does creosote have WSGI support?

I believe it is as long as the sqlite build is threadsafe. One thing I will 
try to achieve during the pre-PyCon sprinting is migrating to PostgreSQL 
(since the psql database is already set up and waiting).

I read your weblog entry - it was enlightening :)

I should have given you lot access to the CVS repo. Sorry about that 
oversight.

Sounds interesting.

I guess this is what I'll be looking at as part of the sprint. I've still got 
a fair amount of reviewing to do of messages to this SIG though. Hopefully 
I'll find some time on Thursday, otherwise I'll be doing it during the

I started taking a look at converting to postgresql, although I did not
commit anything. During the ChiPy spring a seperated the sql.  This
should run fine on postgres, although I did not test.  Are you thinking
of using psycopg or something else?

I take it the sprint is scheduled for PyCon? Any chance those who can't
make it could participate in irc?

Re: a convo we were having over on chipy which we've moved onto
catalog-sig: I integrated the stuff from xmlrpc.py and moved into 
rpc.py, and adjusted the pypi cmd line utility appropriately...and then
removed the unused stuff :)

I'd be interested in this too.

Sure, if I can get organised enough to get the IRC going :)

Cool. Is this going into that svn repository?

Is this checked into that svn repository?

I'm familiar with psycopg and it's installed on creosote, so I'd say that's 
the winner :)

Yeah, you can see our experiments here:
